Hi

John announced at Mix that the aim is to release in June 09. That  
officially gives Michael and me a deadline around mid may probably. At  
that  
time it should be ready for RTM.

I have chapter in my TOC about webforms, but as long as there is no  
integration to play with it’s going to be hard to explain people what  
needs  
to happen. Should I just skip that subject then, is there a private  
project  
floating around perhaps?

Also rails compatibility what should I imagine there? Will there be  
active  
record adapters provided by MS to make that work because Rails without  
active record isn’t really rails is it?  
To host it in IIS I believe I’ve got somebody interested enough in Rack  
to  
give that a shot. I just won’t have time to implement that activerecord  
stuff although I looked at it and it isn’t really hard I guess it’s just  
a  
lot of work 🙂

I’ll try to get ironrubymvc done as soon as possible because I still  
need to  
write 3 chapters to finish on time which might be a huge challenge on  
its  
own. The following is not a complaint/order/command or anything like  
that,  
it’s just a query: If the timeline around webforms integration is  
anywhere  
before may then I might be able to squeeze it in, otherwise I’ll have to  
skip it probably which brings my chapters down to 2 :).

For the people from the community who would like to submit a 2-5 page  
essay  
on how they used IronRuby in their organization. I will need those  
before  
the 3rd week of april at the latest.

Cheers  
Ivan

Ivan, I’m not sure if anyone ever replied to this, but I can help  
clarify some things for you.

[http://en.oreilly.com/oscon2009/public/schedule/detail/7965](http://en.oreilly.com/oscon2009/public/schedule/detail/7965)  
IronRuby will be 1.0 by Oscon2009.

I’m showing what we’ve got so far with Rails at RailsConf in a couple  
weeks. I’ve been updating the website with the status of Rails, so just  
keep an eye on [IronRuby.net /](http://ironruby.net/Documentation/Rails) if you’re  
curious. There is an ActiveRecord adapter  
([IronRuby MSSQL adapter for System.Data.SqlClient · GitHub](http://gist.github.com/100070)), but it’s not complete yet. Ray Vernagus  
will be giving me a hand in polishing it up. I’m also planning on  
showing IIS support, as we did the work last year but never did anything  
with it. I also want to show [ASP.NET](http://ASP.NET) MVC =P

Need any other clarification?
